Having anything to do with a hit film is great. Even if you're a third assistant to the director or second to the editor, if the film does well, every technician, every actor benefits from it.
The fact is that because of Garam Masala, I got an opportunity to work with Mr Priyadarshan again, and I'm in a new film he's directed that's coming up in the summer.
It's flattering enough that he's reconsidered me, and the fact that my producer, Mr Ratan Jain, has been reconsidering me for a couple of projects. And it's important to have the tag of 'another hit film.'
I've had a couple -- I've had Kya Kool Hai Hum, Qayamat, Julie and Garam Masala -- so at least, on some level, you don't feel demoralised. Whatever you do, people do come and watch it. Otherwise, why would I want to dance with Akshay (Kumar) and John (Abraham) for a brief number and do a couple of scenes and move out of the film?
My intention is that whatever little bit I'm doing should be seen, appreciated. And if (it's) not appreciated, I should know what went wrong, so I can correct it next time.
